View file protection replication sessions
Network-attached storage is a file-level storage architecture that makes stored data more accessible to networked devices.
About this task
See Understanding PowerMax File for storage systems for an overview of PowerMax File.
File replication allows the NAS server and the underlying file systems to be replicated with the same configuration as the source on the destination. Mimicking the configuration is done automatically as a part of destination auto-provisioning and the replication mode can be either synchronous or asynchronous.
